Alright, I’ll admit it – with the temperature slowly rising, I’m finding it harder to get dressed. Don’t get me wrong, it’s quicker to get dressed (Exhibit A: this morning – threw on a slip dress and out the door I go!), but it’s harder to dress ‘cool’. Winter fashion is amazing because you get to be creative with all the different layering combinations. However in summer, I find myself wearing the same items over and over again. Who can relate?
I knew I needed to somehow elevate my summer style, so when Glue Store challenged me to pick out three things that I’d never normally consider wearing, I didn’t bat an eyelid. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
Ahead, I’m breaking down three street style looks that got me out of a style rut – and I hope it does the same for you.
THE GRAPHIC SET
Go for the matching top & bottom duo (…with a side of fresh oranges). I love how much of a statement it makes, especially with the graphic logo wordings all around the fabric (it says "You Can't Practice Attitude"). Would totally wear this out to party with heels! An alternative to wearing dresses – the IT-girl way.
THE TRACKSUIT PANTS
Throw on a pair of tracksuit pants, especially when Kappa is making a resurgence! I have never been in the trackies scene until I fell in love with these red Kappa pants. I’m now a convert. Kappa forever.

THE HIGH CUT SHORTS
Denim is everywhere this season. Try wearing a pair of cheeky bum cuts. They are making a comeback, as influenced by the swimsuit trend this season that’s focused on showing off your bottom assets. But make sure you’re covered up on top so it doesn't look *too* tacky.
